Map of hostilities on May 20
The situation on the fronts remains tense:
The Izyum front was temporarily stalled. The Armed Forces of Ukraine have taken positions on the chalk mountains and are holding the line. In the event of an assault on the Svyatogorsk Lavra, casualties and provocations among the civilian population are possible, since we have seen more than once or twice how the Armed Forces of Ukraine "protect" compatriots, hiding behind them like a shield.
Lugansk front. From Popasnaya, a rapid offensive is developing in all directions. Our troops are liberating Severodonetsk, there are fierce battles for this strategically important city of the LPR. According to various estimates, there are from 8,000 to 15,000 VFU militants in the Severodonetsk region.
On the Donetsk front without much change. We continue to slowly but surely push the evil spirits beyond the borders of the DPR.
On the Zaporozhye front, after the unsuccessful counter-offensive of the Armed Forces of Ukraine near Gulyaipole, the situation does not change.Calibration. In the Zhytomyr region, the railway was calibrated. A rocket attack was carried out on the Palace of Culture in the city of Lozovaya, Kharkiv region - the building was used as an arms depot. A blow was struck at the Odessa portside plant (OPZ) in the city of Yuzhny, Odessa region (located 35 km from Odessa).
